The POTENT project focuses on understanding the genetic regulation of tuberisation in potatoes to improve crop varieties. By studying specific genes, the project aims to enhance potato breeding for better yield and resilience to environmental stress.
Tuberisation in potato is a major photoperiodic developmental programme in which stolons form starch-rich tubers.
The earliness of tuberisation dictates the time to crop maturity and so is a crucial factor in potato agronomy.
Exploitation of the naturally occurring variation in tuberisation onset provides a route to breeding improved varieties for different latitudes, harvest times and markets.
Recent focus in this field has been on the regulation of a FLOWERING LOCUS T orthologue termed StSP6A,…
